[Capdist-auditions] Audition notice - "An Ideal Husband" (Oscar Wilde) Feb. 11 and 13 with Classic Theater Guild

[Laura Griffin]

100% virtual production, with no in-person meetings at all.
*Summary:* Sir Richard Chiltern has everything needed for happiness in
1890s London - wealth, a successful political career, and a brilliant wife
who idolizes him. His life could come crashing down, though, when an old
friend of his wife’s shows up with evidence that reveals the fraudulent
source of his wealth. Laura Cheverly threatens to expose him if he doesn’t
corruptly support a political project that benefits her. Can his charmingly
idle friend Lord Goring & his witty sister Mabel save both his honor and
his family?
